How is the cross sectional shape of a glacial valley different from a valley formed by stream erosion?

Geography

fgiga [73]3 years ago
5 0
A glacial valley cross-sectional shape is a U shape whereas a stream valley is usually a V shape. The U shape comes from the scouring action of the alpine glaciers which carries rocks with it which can abrade the walls of the valley and the glacier occupies the whole valley so scours out such a shape whereas the stream cuts down and water washes in from the sides of the valley into the stream or river creating the V shape.

How are lowland areas, like the Amazon River Basin, important in Latin America?
alexandr402 [8]

The lowland areas of Latin America are very important because of multiple reasons. The majority of the agriculture and farming of animals is taking place in the areas like this, so the food sector is directly connected with them. On top of the agricultural production, these lowlands produce a lot of food on their own. The industries that use as their main material also are directly dependent on these lowlands, as they are mostly covered with numerous types of high quality tropical tree species. There's thousands of species of plants that are used in the medicine, so the pharmacies are also very dependent on them. All in all, these lowlands managed to contribute a lot in the economy, health, and general well being of the Latin American countries.
